Matteo, You cannot use the SQL logins (IssApp, EventCollector_XXXXXX etc.) that are created by ISS components, since these have random passwords which are stored securely. (Even if that were not the case, using the same account for two distinctly different processes goes against best practice.)
The solution is to simply create a new SQL login for your agent process. >From what you wrote, this looks like a read-only/reporting scenario, so the standard SQL roles public+db_datareader would probably suffice.

I've installed the evaluation and it works perfectly, but I recognize that I dont know how to login into the MS SQL desktop database to see tables. Is it possible? Is the login the same one of the Site Protector system or something else? Could someone help me? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Matteo Poropat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.genhome.org -------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ ISSForum mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE OR CHANGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, go to https://atla-mm1.iss.net/mailman/listinfo/issforum To contact the ISSForum Moderator, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The ISSForum mailing list is hosted and managed by Internet Security Systems, 6303 Barfield Road, Atlanta, Georgia, USA 30328. _______________________________________________ ISSForum mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE OR CHANGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, go to https://atla-mm1.iss.net/mailman/listinfo/issforum To contact the ISSForum Moderator, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The ISSForum mailing list is hosted and managed by Internet Security Systems, 6303 Barfield Road, Atlanta, Georgia, USA 30328.
